don't ask me why such a post.
i'm so crazy that i haven't finish geography revision and YET have the time to come and blog. hahahaha.
laziness is all over the bones.
and I HAVEN'T TOUCH ECONOMICS. haha.
i'm so dead.
shoot me.
through forces of the earth's crust, no it's lithosphere, which in turn travels on the asthenosphere, the lithosphere moves and creates life on earth.
the first ever masterpiece of mother nature must be the rocks.
YES, they are given birth by our dearest volcanoes.
they erupt,
and erupt,
omg, poor St Helens, reduced to an ugly egg-shell crater after its BIGGGGGGG eruption and blast. how big? go check it out yourself, i got a shock after seeing the documentary in school.
yes, that's the birth of ROCKS, they come out from those ugly reddish or black fluid called lava. lava cools, and forms igneous rocks. this is their first stage of life. of course, they grow up, tolerating the torments and heat and pressure by the vigorous tectonic activities of Earth, and BOOM! they became sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. [sounds like powerpuff girls starting...]
but not all rocks have the same fate as the rest. some remain as igneous rocks forever, hiding under the not-yet-reach metamorphic or sedimentary pressure&temperature range regolith, and stone there forever.
and ever,
and ever.
when one day, mr weathering comes by. [presume weathering is a guy, he got great force and strength.]
mr weathering wear and tear every kind of rock, be it granite basalt andesite shale sandstone limestone quartzite marble.......... [yes whatever.]
behold the power of 1/100 of weathering, the SALT WEATHERING. [i don't know how many processes are there in this world, this is just one of them.]
tafoni, or cavernous weathering
a gnamma, or weathering pit
honeycomb weathering.
these 3 beautiful pictures are the work of salt and water.
why chose salt weathering? i think it create the prettiest weathering landforms. haha.
BUT, other than getting themselves disfigured by mr weathering,
poor rocks. their XXXX million years of life in Earth is a terrible one.
those weathering fragments, they are being transfered away, or kena dragged by gravity.
gay boy gravity, he wants company near the surface of Earth.
this is called mass movement, or mass wasting. sad rocks.... :(
THIS IS MUDFLOW, rocks don't want to destroy humans and houses too, i know. i've been a rock for today, at the same place not moving. this is considered a rock right? people says stone ma.
they are too heavy [like me], so a rock fall happens.
this is a debris slide. poor rocks.
oh and then, rocks get weathered more and more, until they become part of the soil, known as regolith.
new rocks continued to come out of Earth's tummy[mantle] molten magma.
yep, i'm bored and don't wanna study. that's all.
this blog post is 50% facts and 50% just-for-fun and boring content.
please do not use this post to study for your geography exams! HAHA.
haha, i guess my JCTs are NUTS. SAVE ME FROM THE DEPTHS OF FAILURE!
